Orb created Orb - My work on Crasher on 03-30-2011 08:36
Hello polycounters, i recently finished working on a little game called "Crasher". We were 2 environment artists, using the Unity engine. Its not a triple a or something crazy, but i really enjoyed working on it.
Here is juste few exemples of the assets i made, explaining the process i used for some of them.
more stuff I've done for crasher in my website (crasher page done, but the rest of the portfolio is still under constuction)
hope you like it!
Only few ones are presented with unity! All the screenshots in game and just few assets like thoses ones:
But most of the page is presented with marmoset engine, which is more fast and sexy to present than unity. (even we pushed unity pretty far on its limits)
About how i manage my cracks well I dont use crazy techniques i guess, i play a lot with the pressure of my tablet using the dam brush (or standard with brush mode set to +80) and my favorite brush is the flatten with intensity to 100 and brush mode at -100 which makes, really cool and clean sharp edges (its very similar to Trim dynamic). I also like to add this slash i use everywhere wich is a slash i sculpted from a plane before turning it an alpha with mrgbzgrabber, it gives me that little "comics" style i like. I'll try to make that video i promised to JasonLavoie btw xd.
I didnt forget about the video x), I dont have much time right now, ill try to prepare it as soon as possible.
@synergy11: its almost that, but i exported each parts from max (the bricks of each parts are not attached together wich allows me to select them separately in zbrush). I used 3dcoat (http://www.3d-coat.com/) for the retopology, and decimation master in zbrush to lower the polycount while keeping the details (you can also lower the subdivision, before exporting; cracks and little details are not that necessary for retopo) thats it!
Hello, i Wanted to share my crack brush, since i recieved a lot of mails asking me how i make cracks. So i did also a video, that explains how i made it and how you can make you're own custom brushes, my accent is crap but i sux in making videos. Btw this technique is just a fun trick i tryed, there is probably lot of techniques to achieve the same result i think (using gradient alphas etc)
anyway here is an exemple of the brush
you can download it here: http://orbart.free.fr/Orb_Cracks.ZBP
and see the video here: http://vimeo.com/26399689
Hope it will be usefull to someone. I plan to make an other one, about sculpting.
madPXL: I have one question: did you created the levels maps under Unity with the built in terrain editor ?
yes we used the terrain editor.
